[REBOL] Re: financial functions

From: brett:codeconscious at: 21-Apr-2002 21:12

Hi,
> << Does anyone have an internal rate of return function? >>
I use financial functions off and on - mostly in Excel, but I aim to reduce my use of that tool if I can. So I went a bit wild and created some functions too. NPV - Net present value of periodic cash flows. DCF - Discounted cash flow where the cash flows are on specific dates. IRR - Internal Rate of Return using NPV or a DCF function. SOLVE - The thing that IRR uses. Performs secant iteration to solve a function. Could potentially be used for Goal Seek functionality. http://www.codeconscious.com/rebsite/rebol-library/cash-flow-functions.r Regards, Brett.
